Process & Profile

Alma Del Jaguar Tequila Añejo is a meticulously crafted blend of three distinct batches, each aged in American and French oak barrels to create a complex and layered flavor profile. This additive-free tequila is produced at the Feliciano Vivanco y Asociados distillery (NOM 1414) in Arandas, Jalisco, using 100% Blue Weber agave. The unique aging process involves:

• 18% of the blend: Aged 20.7 months exclusively in American oak, yielding a lighter color with delicate notes of chalk and limestone.

• 17% of the blend: Aged 20.2 months in American oak, developing a darker hue with an intriguing mix of vanilla and a subtle vinegar tang.

The tequila is bottled unfiltered to preserve its authentic character and complexity.
